Walking a very thin line (BL)

"What a shame. He had his whole life ahead of him, yet attempted suicide by jumping off a building."

One year later~
The past can be recovered from, but never completely forgotten or erased from memory. August Castellan was a person who shut people out, never getting too close with someone. He was polite and gentle, but always drew a line, mercilessly pushing those who tried to cross it out of his life.

He had done this perfectly....until now. Why couldn't he bear to push him away?
Edward was a bright and cheerful person, breaking apart all the walls August put around himself with ease. He came crashing in August's originally uneventful life, making his black and white world bloom with colors and emotions he didn't even know existed before.

He always thoughts of true love as a hoax, something people use to comfort themselves until he met Edward. But was Edward really what he seemed? Or was he hiding his own secrets, a past he can't leave behind?

Can two people, both connected by a past one doesn't even know the other is a part of, get through this? Or was their story messed up from the beginning, destined for a bad end before it even started?
Angst with happy ending...probably.
